Grace and Liotta met while she was still married to Mark Grace. However, their romantic relationship did not begin quickly. Liotta once shared, as told by Hollywood Life:

“After she and Mark split up, she was looking for an acting coach. She was asked to do a rap video, and she called me up one day and said, ‘Should I do this video?’ And I said, ‘No, you should probably have dinner with me.’”

In the years that followed, the couple remained on good terms and even became subject to rumors that they had rekindled their romance.
